I have create an Applescript to open a file (pdf,jpeg...0 and it works when I execute the script on my Mac. But Iwould like to launch this script from Flash, because it's for a cdrom. I put :
on (release) {
fscommand("exec", "apfichier.app");
}

I'm trying to open a URL in Safari. It works fine for websites without Flash embedded, but crashes Safari for Flash sites.
Example (this WORKS):
tell application "Safari" to open location [URL]
This CRASHES when Safari is not already running:
tell application "Safari" to open location [URL]
Two things I noticed:
Safari only crashes for websites with embedded Flash The script above only crashes if a new instance of Safari is created (i.e. Safari was not running before)
From the second observation I assume that it could be a permission issue of some sort. Maybe the Safari instance launched from the AppleScript has a problem loading plugins?
How do you call an AppleScript process from an AIR native process?
Background: I've created a script.scpt file and placed it in the root src directory of project.
I'm getting this error with what I have:
Error: Error #3219: The NativeProcess could not be started. 'launch path not accessible'
What I have:
var nativeProcessStartupInfo:NativeProcessStartupInfo = new NativeProcessStartupInfo();
var file:File = File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath("MyScript.scpt");
[Code].....
After that I passed the script file name as an argument. It also needs the working directory to be set to the directory of the script otherwise you get:
ERROR - osascript: script.scpt: No such file or directory
Is there a way of getting the current active document path from the flash application by AppleScript? The only command available in the Adobe Flash dictionary for applescript is "do script", can I call a script to get the path of active document?

View 2 Replies1) how do you open a new window if you have thumbnail pics in the flash movie but want the full pic to open up in a new window? Is this Javascript inside flash?
2) How do they do the menu bar here at this site:[URL]
I work with 3d animation. Im have a problem with a personal website Im doing, I have a link in a button inside a flash movie to open a new window and play a youtube movie:
on (release) {
var jscommand:String = "window.open('http://www.youtube.com/v/b0L4XLODhAA&hl=en&fs=1&','win','height=344,width=4 25,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes');"; getURL("javascript:" + jscommand + " void(0);");
}
This works fine in Firefox but in IE it doesnt work, I then change the /v/ in the youtube link with /p.swf?video_id= and now I have the window open showing the small youtube thumbnail of my video but once a click play, nothing happens, I check it and is not loading anything.
So I tried to code something in AS3, it works technically, but not so smoothly. Try opening the three graudge doors here: [URL]..
They don't relly want to open and seem to open when the mouse moves out of the movies clip which is not how it's programmed:

View 2 RepliesGood day to everyone. I'm here today to seek help about Flash CS4 and ActionScript 3.0. The story starts when one day, my boss asked me to make a flash presentation about their upcoming user training for a newly developed software. I was enthusiastic and excited about it because it's been a long time that I did not use Flash (note that I don't have any experience in ActionScript 3.0). At first, everything was a bit rough as I need to recall how to properly use the frames to create a successful animation. As I was about to finish the project, my boss approached me again and asked if I could insert a menu page in front so that the users won't have to replay the whole thing again just to look for a little something on that part of the movie. So yea, at first I was abit hesitant to accept. I said that it will work with Powerpoint. But she's a total pusher and I was forced to say yes. Now I'm having this problem about how to make a flash button load a swf movie.I've tried searching all over the net for tutorials but most of the times the "getUrl" and other stuff are said to be outdated.
View 1 RepliesI am testing a FLASH animation ad that has links to a website.When I click on the links, it opens firefox but it doesn't go to the link!I have added the links and the file names in the Adobe Flash Settings Manager, restarted several times, restarted in Safe Mode and it still does not work!I cannot find any information on this. My coworker also tried it and it does not work for him on IE on Windows.HOWEVER, If I have SAFARI open it works fine, and If I drag and drop the .swf file into either browser and then click on the links it goes to the web page.

View 17 Replies I just found out that many members here are webmasters already. I an creating a flash design to be embed in an html.
My flash file have 8 frames with stop(); on each frame. Then on the html, I have this javascript code:
<input type="button" onclick="PlayFlashMovie()" value="play">
But when I click it, it operates as a Next frame button. So now, I made 8 buttons:
<input type="button" onclick="PlayFlashMovie()" value="1">
up to value=8. Button 1 is ok since it will play Frame1 of flash file but how about the second up to the eight?
What should I add to the javascript so when I click button 2, it will play my flash in frame 2? when I click button 3, it will play my flash in frame 3? And so on..

View 1 RepliesI have a flash slide on my site. The slide has next and previous buttons to either move to the next slide or the previous slide. Each slide is only an image. When you click a particular image it takes you to the page specific to the image you clicked.
My issue is this: When you click the image, it opens the page in a new window. I would like to have the window open in the same window, but having issues figuring out how to do it.
The flash is controled by an image.xml script. I've added target= "_blank" to the xml, but the URLs are still opening in a seperate window. I didnt create the flash, is it possible the issues lies within the .fla file?
Below is a sample of images.xml

View 2 RepliesRecently today my Flash started not staying open. When I run it, it shows the normal screen with the timeline, properties, stage and all but then it closes down. I can still open my previous works except Flash just closes down.
Worked normally like 5 hours ago. Although something strange did happen when I was using it 5 hours ago. My library suddenly became empty of all tweens and symbols and stuff but my program still worked. Restarting Flash brought back all the symbols to the library. But I doubt that this could be the cause of my newer more serious problem.
